While driving at night headlights and tail lights all go out for a minute and then they come back on. This could happen 1-3 times of driving.
2016 Kia Sedona electrical complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 46 of 46, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My 2016 kia sedona lx is having issues with the sliding doors not closing all the way. The driver side sliding door was worked on when we bought it but it has reverted to not locking once closed every time we close it. The passenger sliding door is still random. It's only when we have them opening/closing with the power option. When the power option is turned off and we manually open/shut the doors, they do latch and there is no issue.
Tl* the contact owns a 2016 kia sedona. The contact took the vehicle to dutch miller kia of charleston (335 maccorkle avenue sw, south charleston, wv 25303) to be serviced per the federal safety agency campaign number: 18v338000 (structure, electrical system), but the contact stated that the remedy failed. The contact stated that the power sliding door did not auto-reverse and crushed the contact's upper arm. Medical attention was required. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 54,000. The VIN was not available.
Power sliding doors make loud grinding noises when closeing and opening. In addition the power sliding doors continued to close on me while I was trying to push it back open. Car was parked in the driveway and off, my front passenger pressed the overhead psd button before he realized the kids hadn't finished climbing out.
Tl* the contact owns a 2016 kia sedona. While attempting to start the vehicle, the key failed to turn in the ignition.

The contact also stated that the rear hatch was difficult to open after being unlocked with the key fob. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 9,960.
My mother and her friend were driving approx. 35 miles per hour when the right rear wheel went off the road causing them to go into the frying pan river in basalt, co. There was approx. 42.1 degree slope. My mother was the passenger. We retrieved her pictures and video. She was video taping with her cell phone at the time of the accident. The passenger window was down. She said, "oh [xxx]", and appeared to reach to remove her seatbelt. They went into the river. They were found at 4:30 pm with car submerged in water and both drowned. No damage to the car. The side airbags had gone off and the front windows were up with the airbags sticking out when they were found. The front airbags did not go off. My concern is that my mom knew she would get out but when she took a deep breath the airbags knocked her air out. And we know the windows were down but went up. If the electrical shorted out from being under water, why did the windows go up and not stay where they were, which was open. Also, the drivers seat moved forward after going into the water. And we question if airbags went off to early. Both the air bags deploying and windows going up impeded my mom getting out. The police report seems to question why the airbags went off also. There was a report that another kia sedona was driving down the freeway and all the doors flew open. I'm worried that we will start seeing more and more electrical problems with kia.
